Under the law, they could all get life in prison without parole.

There is nothing to stop the prosecutor, except common sense. He would win the cases easily, and that would be that.

Unfortunately we are seeing overzealous DA’s using laws meant to protect kids and teens from Chester the Molester against the very people they are supposed to protect. I mean, since when should a teen be required to register as a sex offender for taking nude pictures of himself/herself?

It’s comforting to know the parents are on top of the situation.

40 years ago kids were getting their hands on other kids by “playing doctor.”

Today, they keep their hands to their selves (often) and just send pictures in emails.

Oy, vey.

In an age of cell phone cameras and Facebook profiles containing hundreds of pictures snapped on a kid’s camera, it’s harder than you would think. If these kids tried this even 10 years ago, the person working at the drug store would stop them or report what they’re doing.

Common sense says that they shouldn’t be taking pictures of themselves naked to begin with. They are participating in child porn distribution. I say scare the crap out of them by arresting them, “booking them”, and throwing them in a jail cell for a good 24 hours.

Then when they are good and scared, haul them out in front of a judge who will let them know in no uncertain terms that they are committing a SERIOUS felony that could get them many years in jail and listed as a sex offender for life. Then give them about 200 hours of community service picking up trash on the roadside all summer.

That is the law. If you are under 18, and photograph yourself in the nude, you are in possession of an illegal picture. In Arizona, you get 20 years in jail for each such picture found.

But the little morons are not aware of the REAL dangers out there where a pervert might get their picture and address and come looking for a “good time”. See my post just above.

I know it’s the law, but there should be a narrow exception to child pr0n statutes in this case. This isn’t about gross adult pedophiles trading pictures of minors who were exploited and forced against their will. This is a case of teens being teens (ie. shortsighted and lacking judgment). It’s especially dumb that they’re being charged with “exploitation of a minor” when in fact they’re taking pictures of themselves.

It's not that hard for parents to prevent their kids from having cell phones. This article only illustrates the point teenagers and pre pubescent middle schoolers don't need cell phones.

Bill Clinton Is There...
Orginally posted 2-15-99
by IncPen

Last night the Ghost Of America's Future visited the White House, and showed Bill Clinton what lies beyond tomorrow.

Let's walk with them a bit as the Ghost shows Mr Clinton what he's wrought:

-A father is driving in heavy traffic with his two young children in the backseat. The oldest, a boy of 8 years, says "Dad what's oral sex?."

Bill Clinton is there.

-A woman is working late in her office. She is a single mother, she needs the paycheck. The slimy executive who has been hitting on her notices her light is on, and has decided that tonight's the night. He makes his move. Emboldened by recent events in Washington, he won't take no for an answer.

Bill Clinton is there.

-An accountant with 23 years of untarnished service is finishing up some paperwork for a client when he notices an error on his billing authorization, already signed by the Fortune 500 client. If he lets it go through, he'll make $50,000 more than he's entitled to. The chances of being caught are very slim. He pauses for a moment, then seals the envelope and drops it down the mail chute.

Bill Clinton is there.

-A young couple is returning to the city after dinner with their parents, where they announced their engagement. They are approaching a poorly lit intersection, and proceed through the green light. Also at the intersection at that moment is a carpenter who's had a bad day. He's tired of following the rules. He doesn't feel like stopping tonight. He blasts through.

Bill Clinton is there.

-A college senior is on the ropes... he's almost out of money in his last semester. A former roomate has implicated him in a test-stealing scandal. He's innocent, but his roomate wasn't. His knowledge and failure to act on the cheating could cost them both their college careers. "Stick to the story, no matter what" his roommate says. He does.

Bill Clinton is there.

-A husband has had some late nights at the office, working on a project. His wife suspects nothing, but her friend isn't so sure. One night late, the friend drops by to "check" on the husband. They wind up on a couch in the employee lounge.

Bill Clinton is there.

-A young widow goes to her lawyer's office to sign some papers pertaining to her husband's death. As she is signing the papers, she feels her lawyer's hands moving up her dress. She files a complaint and is dragged thru the mud as a golddigger, eventually dropping the complaint in disgrace

Bill Clinton is there.

-The board of a large corporation has a problem. Their CEO has been caught in a compromising position with a young subordinate. The stock price is at record highs, but there are rumors of a Justice Department investigation on the horizon. After a heated board meeting, the young staffer is summoned and offered a job with a subsidiary thousands of miles away. He accepts.

Bill Clinton is there.

-The mayor of a small town knows his brother is unethical, but when the city police chief calls to say his brother is going to be charged with embezzling, the mayor calls the city attorney an arranges a cover, in order to pay back the funds.

Bill Clinton is there.

-A writer for a major metropolitan newspaper has the goods on Senior Congressman. The story is locked-solid, all he needs are a few 'non-denial' denials. He phones the Congressman's office, gets his denials. Meanwhile the Congesssman's spokesperson calls the paper's managing editor. The story is killed, the reporter reassigned to the police blotter.

Bill Clinton is there.

-The jury has heard all the evidence in a capital murder case, and both sides have given their final arguments. The jury retires to decide a man's fate. "Let's get this over with" says the foreman, "Or they'll sequester us. We could be here for weeks." "I have a hair appointment Friday afternoon," says the retired librarian. The man is convicted on the first ballot.

Bill Clinton is there.

-Police are escorting a suspect out of a crowd that tried to kill him for assaulting a young girl. As they are driving away from the scene, the man confesses to a friend in the back seat of the police car that he indeed raped the girl. He is charged based on the confession overheard by the policemen in the front seat. A judge rules the confession inadmissable, as the police were protecting the man, not questioning him in the assault.

Bill Clinton is there.

Some legacy, eh? And you, Hillary... STFU and go home.

Just wondering, are there still any cell phones without built-in cameras?

The perverts are adults who know very well what they’re sharing, while the teens generally lack real judgment. I mean, that is the reason why we have age of consent laws for having sex and appearing in pornography in the first place, right?
